I wanted to see where they've put me for next season, but can't remember my seat number. :oops:

When are they sending the ST's out? Anyone know?

Oh of course. It's the ST holders (whoever he is) perogative.
Just bloody annoying :lol:

It certainly is, legally as well. Remember, Bolton were the club who won the legal battle (way back in the day - 1920s?) that an ST buyer couldn't claim money back on unattended games. Would be admirably two-faced of them to try to claim double their money the other way - not that they are, of course.

SKD did a piece in the Bolton News saying he was surprised that we've sold 12k for the upcoming season

Do we know how many we sold last season? Just, I detect more people looking forward to this season (myself included) more than they have the last three or four.

At this point last season we had sold roughly between 10/10.5k. Coyle mentioned numbers in a SSN news interview

I think we sold 14,000 last season but i would have thought by now we'd have sold the vast majority of STs we're likely to sell

3 or 4 home games would be a start !!

A drop of (at worst) a couple of thousand ST's is tremendously good going.

I'm really optimistic about this season. I think we have the best squad and automatic promotion is a definite possibility. I'd say we're favourites to win the league, though I may be slightly biased!

i disagree, we never buy ours until the very last minute, like a day or two before the big KO - id have thought were not alone in that?

I just thought that the vast majority of fans would know one way or the other if they were going to renew (or buy for the first time) while the 'Early Bird' discount/Interest Free payment options were still available. I think that if you were a ST holder in the previous season and didn't renew until the last minute you may find your seats might have been taken.

I'd love to be able to see some sort of timeline from the club as to when people have bought STs; before the end of last season, immediately after, before / after the discount, period on publication of the fixtures (me) or, like General M, just before kick off. I'd also like to see a breakdown how many people have renewed, how many haven't, and how many are new sales.

But then I'm boring like that. ;)

You prefer to pay £40+ more, each?
